    Default What's the difference between a face serum and just a normal face lotion?

    I'm trying out Origins Serum and their facial moisturizer. I like the serum which I put on before the moisturizer and then my spf, but I'm wondering if it's worth the cost.

    Just what is a serum compared to a moisturizer? Aren't they one and the same? Reading reviews on amazon doesn't help me at the moment since it just seems to say that serums help moisturize.

    A serum will enrich the skin with nutrients (depending on which one, it can help with anti-aging, skin clarity, smoothness, redness, etc.) and usually will help the moisturizer penetrate into the skin better. A moisturizer generally only hydrates the skin. If there's a step you want to cut out for time and money, I'd find a good moisturizer that has an spf included.
